When Li Xiaochen and the others rushed to the secret prison of the Shadow Department under Yinluo City, Zhu Yueji was staring at the empty cell. Seeing that the Minister of Shadow was coming, she explained the latest situation in time: The Heavenly Demon Clan of the Nine Shadows suddenly appeared in Yinluo City. Despite their best efforts, the members of the Shadow Division were unable to stop the Nine Shadows from rescuing their companions. In particular, the Heavenly Demon Mastiff, which was summoned outside the prison, tore through the prison's defenses with its sharp claws. The shadow department is almost mermaid meat, and it can't resist the heavenly demon mastiff at all. The wounded are already being treated. But the current situation is not promising.

The only thing that can be regarded as good news is that after Jiuyou rescued his companions, he never caused any more trouble, nor did he slaughter the remaining members of the Shadow Department in one fell swoop.

This is not the first time that Jiuyou has attacked the shadow department. Last time, they attacked the east and west, feinted to attack Tianmu Villa, and at the same time secretly Chen Cang, and rescued the Heavenly Demon Mastiff. This account has not yet been settled with them. Today, Jiuyou carried out another sneak attack and rescued people from prison.

It's just that the attacking Nine Shadows have already retreated. Where should I arrest them? Li Xiaochen forcibly suppressed his anger and said helplessly: "I can't imagine that the shadow department can't even look at the captured prisoners now, it's really very down." ”

Zhu Yueji was also worried, and said: "Not long after you became the head of the film department, this kind of thing happened. If it spreads out, it will be greatly detrimental to the shadow department and your reputation. Besides, in a few days, the Elders' House of Shadows will come to assess you. I look at today's events, so it's better to try to keep it down and not leak the news. ”

Qin Yufei and the others nodded in agreement.

Li Xiaochen said gloomily: "Now is the difficult period for the film department. After being weakened day by day, the Shadow Department has gradually lost its control over the Divine Immortal Cultivation Realm. We're like the British royal family now, at most a mascot, and we can brace our faces. The actual control is much less than it used to be. In addition, I am young and senior, and I have just taken office, so I have no prestige. Who else wants to listen to the Ministry of Shadows now?"

Qin Yufei comforted: "Don't be so depressed. At least the four great families still respect the dispatch of the Xianlun Sect and the Shadow Department. Your deeds of Megatron Pantheon a while ago will also raise your rating in the mind of fighting. ”

Li Xiaochen said: "My personal honor and disgrace are small. The Nine Shadows Tribe is the real headache. They possess the Demon King's mount, the Heavenly Demon Mastiff, but they have not exterminated us all. There must be a deep reason for this. I always felt that they had big plans. Don't take it lightly in the future. ”

Zhu Yueji nodded and said, "I think so too." So they have stepped up their efforts and sent people to search for the lair of the Nine Shadows tribe. ”

"I don't think it's going to have much effect. Li Xiaochen shook his head, "The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light." It's too difficult to find the Nine Shades. Only by strengthening our own defenses will we be able to withstand their next round of attacks. When they attack, it's the best time for us to capture the Nine Shadows. ”

"There is another tricky matter...... Zhu Yueji looked at Li Xiaochen's troubled appearance, and hesitantly took out a letter. On the envelope were written a few words in a boxy voice -- Minister Li personally opened it.

Li Xiaochen took the letter and asked, "Who wrote it to me?"

Zhu Yueji said with a heavy look, and said four words word by word: "Izumo Qianxue." ”

"Japanese?" Li Xiaochen opened the envelope, casually glanced at the delicate Japanese on the letterhead, and smiled evilly, "It's still written to me by a Japanese woman." It can't be a love letter, right?"

After hearing this name, Qin Yufei was not like Li Xiaochen, who could laugh easily. Because she had heard the name before and knew exactly what it meant.

Li Xiaochen caught a glimpse of Qin Yufei's face out of the corner of his eye, and hurriedly stuffed the letter to her: "It's better to ask the lady to take a look at it first." ”

Qin Yufei was not dissatisfied with having a girl write to him, but was very jealous of the surname Izumo. She picked up the letter paper and sniffed it slightly: "The water is so fragrant." Generally, only cute and beautiful girls write letters with this flavor of ink. ”

Li Xiaochen laughed dryly: "Let's take a look at what is written in the letter first." Does anyone speak Japanese, so help translate it? ”

Qin Yufei quickly scanned the text on the letter and said, "Sure enough, it's a love letter to you." ”

"What?" Li Xiaochen hurriedly waved his hand, "Impossible! I haven't even heard of this Qianxue." How could she write a love letter to me? Yufei, there must be a limit to joking. ”

"You haven't heard of anyone. People may not have heard of you. The letter also states the date she wants to date you. Qin Yufei pointed to the words on the letterhead, "Look, it's clearly written here." ”

"Really?" Li Xiaochen leaned over and glanced at her, "But I don't know her." Are all Japanese girls so proactive?"

Qin Yufei smiled slightly and said, "I don't know if Japanese girls take the initiative or not." But don't you want to hear about the date?"

"I don't want to. Li Xiaochen hurriedly shook his head.

Qin Yufei said with a smile: "It's because I'm here, so you don't want to." If I'm gone, you're sure eleven willing, right?"

Li Xiaochen coughed dryly: "Don't make fun of me." Tell me why this man asked me out. ”

Qin Yufei wiped the smile from her eyes and said solemnly: "This Izumo Qianxue said in the letter that he would like to invite Minister Li to visit Japan, and by the way, I will learn from you in immortal arts and learn your world-shattering skills." ”

"Sure enough......" Zhu Yueji frowned, "The people of Izumo Taisha are going to challenge us." ”

Li Xiaochen asked, "What Izumo Taisha, who will explain it?"

Qin Yufei said: "Let me explain." The Izumo Taisha Shrine is one of the oldest shrines in Japan and the only shrine in Japan to bear the name 'Taisha'. The shrine maidens there practiced Shinto. All of them have cultivated profoundly. Izumo's Chiyuki was something I had heard about when I was in Japan before. She is the most powerful witch of the younger generation of Izumo Taisha Shrine, and her Taoism is exquisite, which should not be underestimated. ”

Li Xiaochen tilted his head and tried to recall for a while: "Last time I was in the Pantheon Palace, was she also there?"

"Probably not. Izumo Chiyuki has always only practiced in Izumo Taisha. She wouldn't go to that kind of exchange meeting. But your charm is too great, even such a witch has a spring heart, and invites you to travel to Japan~" Qin Yufei deliberately touched Li Xiaochen with her elbow, making the latter very embarrassed.

"Don't talk nonsense. I still have a lot of troubles to deal with here, how can I have any spare time to go to Japan to fight?" Li Xiaochen snatched the letter from Qin Yufei's hand, tore it to pieces, and threw it aside, "It's like I've never seen this letter before." ”

After terminating the discussion of this topic, Li Xiaochen discussed with Zhu Yueji and Qin Yufei the future fortune plan of the film department, and arranged the relevant matters of the film department, and then rushed to the most famous five-star hotel in Yinluo City.

Why did you want to go there? Because Li Xiaochen received a notice from Qin Yichuan: He had already sent Li Xiaochen's family over there, and planned to let the two families sit down tonight, meet each other, have a meal, and have a good talk about the marriage of Chen and Fei.

When they arrived at the designated room, the parents of both families had already arrived. As soon as the old mother saw Qin Yufei, she pulled her to sit down beside her, and kept talking. Li Xiaochen couldn't interject his mouth, so he had to sit on the edge and observe everyone's expressions. Soon, he found his future father-in-law and mother-in-law, with a somewhat unhappy expression.

"Mom, let Yufei sit over there first, with her parents. This time she entered the house, she occupied it all for you, and she couldn't even say hello to her family. Li Xiaochen playfully got Qin Yufei to sit down next to her parents, so that the two of them would not have an unhappy face again.

Qin Yichuan snorted, secretly thinking that fortunately Li Xiaochen was not as ignorant as his mother. Otherwise, if you marry your daughter, you will be even more unhappy to marry.

The old mother saw Qin Yichuan's face, and the boss was unhappy in her heart: Isn't there just a few stinky money, what's the big deal?

Before the hot dish came up, Lin Yifei first opened her mouth and entered the topic: "Mother-in-law, I don't like to beat around the bush, so I said it directly." Xiao Li and our family Fei'er are in love. The two children have also reached the age of talking about marriage. Their relationship was repaired in Shenzhou...... Well, it's already well known. Our two families are here tonight to discuss the marriage of our children. We all know about your family's situation. Your husband died early, and it is not easy for a woman to raise two children. The family is relatively poor. I think the children's weddings will be handled by our women. What do you think?"

When my mother heard this, she was even more upset. She sat up like royalty trained in etiquette and said, "Our family is indeed not as rich as yours, but it is not so much that we can't afford even a wedding." Besides, Yu Fei will marry into our Li family in the future. This wedding should also be hosted by our man. ”

Concubine Lin Yifei laughed and said, "Can you afford it? Except for Xiaoyu, Yufei and I have only one baby daughter." For so many years, it has been like a pearl in the palm of your hand. When our family marries a daughter, we must make the wedding beautiful and magnificent. Say something you don't like to hear, with your embarrassing family background, how can you do a great job?"

"Mom, Mom...... You've been talking for a long time, and your throat is dry, right? Qin Yufei heard the smell of gunpowder in these words, and hurriedly brought the tea over to ease it.

My mother has always been a strong character, and the most unpleasant thing is that others say that she is poor. Lin Yifei's unpleasant nonsense angered her.

"Why can't our family be in a big way? You said you know about our family. Do you know how many digits I have in my bank account? Do you know how many zeros are followed by it? I don't know anything, so I make a fool of myself. It's really funny that you really treat your old lady as a bun and can't afford a wedding...... We can't afford it, not to mention that your family marries a daughter, even if Bafat marries a granddaughter, I can handle it properly!"

Li Xiaochen was embarrassed to lean into his mother's ear and whispered, "It's Buffett." ”

"Stinky boy, don't tear down my platform, stay and go. The old mother rolled up her sleeves and stared at Concubine Lin Yi without giving an inch. The atmosphere on the table immediately became tense.
